Tyrone's Niall Morgan has backed Antrim's stance in the dispute with the Ulster Council over the venue for the match against Armagh. Photograph: Bryan Keane/InphoThe Ulster Council’s ruling the provincial quarter-final must take place at a bigger venue than Antrim’s Corrigan Park, which has a capacity of about 4,000, has led to a standoff between the fixture makers and Andy McEntee’s team.
“I just think it’s totally unfair what’s happening and I’m full of admiration for Antrim that they’re really sticking their heels in and not budging on it. I think it’s commendable. However, before the recent FRC’s tweaks, he spoke out against any potentially draconian moves to curtail the goalkeeper.
“No, not at all. I sort of knew that whenever he played the Interprovincials before Christmas he was probably seeing what it was going to be like,” said the current All-Star goalkeeper.
